Face the Facts

Medical Esthetician Linda Georgedes

You’re the kind who likes to see results.

Invest quality communication time with your S.O., and, just like that, sweetie opens up. Open a savings account and, like lightening, there’s money in the bank. Book monthly facials at a fancy-pants spa, and, oh, how your skin glows. Well, for a day or two at least.

Unless you get with the program. Linda Georgedes’ program, that is.

A medical esthetician (meaning she actually attends dermatology conferences and seminars and can use and sell products with higher medical potency), she can get you on the road to recovery from acne, fine lines, wrinkles, rosacea, and hyperpigmentation.

An appointment with her goes something like this: You fill out paperwork on your history and skin care goals, which become part of your chart (bet your current facialist doesn’t have one of those). Next a chat about your current regime and how it’s working. Now it’s time for Georgedes to work her magic, which could include microdermabrasion, chemical peels, extractions, masks, and ultrasound. And all at a fraction of what high-end spas charge. (Oh, yes.)

Each treatment comes with complimentary brow shaping and eyelash tinting (so thoughtful). The best part is that you’ll leave with a wealth of knowledge and a daily plan for your face.

It’s a whole new kind of committed relationship.
